How can you call someone who repeatedly fights 18 stone profesional boxers in front of TV cameras a coward? Boxing is a business, we might not like it, but that is the truth. Fury isn't fighting Price because his management team do think it makes business sense- there is no other reason than that. Anyone who thinks he is scared to fight him incase he gets hurt is ****ing dreaming.
Awful to see lads on here sat behind a keyboard calling Boxers 'Cowards'. Even if he didnt want to fight Price I wouldnt call him thhat. I truly beleive also, Fury would take the fight. I believe its Hennessey who doesnt want it - And rightly so, Price beats him handily.
If Fury loses to Price, it's over for Mick. He's got absolutely nobody to fall back on. Fury holds all the aces really other than ''current form''. He's got the name value, the higher ranking with practically everyone (and rightly so based on record). In the grand scheme of things Price is a comparative nobody. He's a quiet, respectful Scouser who's knocked over a few clowns, who would be favoured to beat Fury. So long as Mick promises to keep Fury on the ''ranked contender/learning fights'' path he should be alright for now. He's only got to convince Fury that Price was really offered £100k and decided not to bother. Whether that offer was actually made or what it actually entailed is only relevant to the likes of us. And Price obviously.
Its a bit like Martin Adams not going to the Grand Slam of Darts three times as he would have his arse handed to him.
Think Price will do a job on Fury like, he looks to have a lot more about him than Tyson. Dont think Fury, or any man who steps in the ring is a coward though. Probs Mick doesnt want him in with Price yet as people have said.
I'd say that any offer to Price had more than enough clauses to make it shite. Keeping them apart right now makes sense anyway. Fury has shown some frailties, but cowardice is certainly not one of them, the boy is a brainless warrior, which is why he is so entertaining to watch. Price looks on the right path, let them both follow their paths, they can always collide later on...
It's in both of their best interests that they fight later when the are both big names, then they both get rich!!! Fury is not coward, that's for sure. Hope we see this fight in the future!!!
I dont think he has..I reckon he'll have an easier fight with someone less dangerous than Price next and try and get a world title fight.He might as well get the most cash he can,while he can. Loosing in a word title fight at 23 aint gonna do him any harm but a KO from price would at this stage.
